c# - Use different versions of dll file in one app

Question

I have an c# application with two libraries ( moon-apns, tweetsharp ) .. Each library has a reference for newtonsoft.json.dll but different versions ... My app build successfully but one library works fine and the other one throws an exception ( can't find the dll file ).

I think that when i build only one version goes to the bin folder, but i don't know what to do.

Thanks in advance.

You can force both libraries to reference the same version by using Assembly Binding Redirects in your app.config or web.config. Obviously this only works as long as the library versions are compatible.
